Thanks for the kind words; mother and my boys are doing well.

The 8 am sprog delivery didn't go to plan, they had a few emergency cesareans bump ours up the ladder.

We eventually took delivery at 1427hrs and 1430hrs, first one out hit the scales at 6 pounds 4 ounces and the second one came out at 6 pounds 9 ounces....nearly 14 pounds of arms and legs! not a bad effort in my opinion for 37 weeks and well and truly worth the 7 yrs of trying. Just awesome!!!

Photo's later, too bloody tired already, just got home.

Thanks again :-)

So Ben, how Is fatherhood treating you? how is the pit crew training coming along. Will they be ready for the Jambo?

Fat Chili

9 months old now, free standing and walking behind their walkers, solo steps still to come....still have not slept through a whole night, so we're constantly knackered!

They get into everything! latest fetish is removing the backs off the remotes. So still some child proofing to be performed around the place.

But everyday some little development occurs that makes it awesome. Loving fatherhood, just got to convince my employer to give me an additional resource so I can stop doing 12 to 17 hr days.

They got their first Jeep toy models for their naming ceremony, friend of ours bought a 1960's set of three (1 large, 2 small) steel Tonka CJ's of Ebay US......their going straight onto the mantle piece :-)

Just an update:

The pit crew gained a cheerleader, daughter back in June (10 weeks old now) and the twins had their 2nd Birthday the weekend before last.

Wife made the cake below, no influence from me was had (honestly) and it came out great! Tasted even better......

just watch out for the giant roo's when wheeling!

That's not one of mine behind the cake.
